Shares may be issued in the name of a minor or in the name of a custodian under the Illinois Uniform Transfers to Minors Act, as amended. If shares are issued in the name of a minor, redemption of any part or all of the shares by payment to the minor or upon order of the minor of the amount of the shares and any declared dividends releases the credit union from all obligations to the minor as to the shares redeemed. Further, if shares are issued in the name of a minor, the minor shall be considered as being of the age of majority and having contractual capacity.
